"The way Paul Fisher sees the world and writes about it is pure delight! An Exaltation of Tongues is full of astounding images and the wisdom of his shaman voice - 'from the green blood of grass / to the moon's missing half.' I love the nuances, the leaping alchemical word magic, and the vision in these poems - 'sweet as stolen honey / ladled from the Great Bear's tongue.' I love the way his poems leap between worlds, and the transparency of emotion is stunning. Every line has the magic I have come to enjoy in Paul Fisher's writing." ~ Diane Frank, Author of Canon for Bears and Ponderosa Pines…mehr

Authority, instead, is given with such a light touch - to 'my tongue'; to 'your burnt tongue'; to 'double-edged" and 'severed tongues'. His poetry sustains affirmation in an unaffirming, unsustainable world." ~ Judith Hall, author of The Promised Folly
